It’s a great American tradition to dance in barns, and we’re so pleased to honor that tradition and host a contra dance this season in the Shepherd Barn. Steve Howland will call a variety of circle, square and contra dances, and the band will feature long-time valley contra dance musicians: Becky Hollingsworth on piano, Joe Blumenthal on bass, and Rebecca Weiss and Rose Jackson on fiddle.
 
All dances will be taught; no partner is necessary to come. All ages and experience levels welcome!
 
If the weather is good, additional registrations will be accepted on the night of the event for outdoor dancing.
